Update on UEFI screen reboot or crash with Windows 10 April 2018 and Intel SSDs
A PR agency covering Intel and MS contacted us about the post we made. Microsoft has halted distribution of Windows 10 April 2018 Update for owners of systems with specific Intel SSDs, the combo of the operating system update and the Intel SSDs can result in a boot loop, it is now cleared up, it involves the series 600 SSDs.
Microsoft did not list which exact Intel SSDs suffer from the issues. Currently, there is no patch or workaround available for the issue, it’s expected that after Microsoft has found the root of the problem, it will release an update and make the Windows 10 April 2018 Update available to owners of the affected systems again. Here's the update:
I wanted to reach out to offer additional details related to your story about Microsoft and Intel SSDs. Microsoft has temporarily paused the Windows 10 April 2018 Update (also known as R4) on select devices using the Intel SSD 600 series and Intel SSD Pro 6000p series due to issues that may cause a system to crash and enter a UEFI screen after reboot. To date, Intel is aware the block Microsoft implemented applies only to the Intel SSD 600 series and Intel SSD Pro 6000p series. Microsoft is working on a resolution that will allow the April 2018 update on these systems in the near future.
Microsoft has updated its original post to clarify the drives impacted.

no problems here with a 600p 128GB SSD.
saw a few comments on a different forum from people with 600p SSDs who also had no problems.

Will try to install Windows 10 1803 on a 545s on the weekend and see what happens, it should be ok.
